Hardcover. Condition: Sehr gut. 1. Auflage. Z : 15 x 23 cm, 232 pages, 77 color and 33 b/w illustrations and plans - This book documents the HEC Campus s transformation in close detail and richly illustrated, including a newly commissioned photo essay by award-winning French photographer Cyrille Weiner. It takes readers through the planning and construction of its modern buildings, designed by René Coulons, throughout the 1960s, and the careful contemporary restoration of many of these structures by Duplantier and Chipperfield. The architects also conceived an entirely new building and a surrounding park, which has become a key element of social life on campus. Through essays and an interview with Martin Duplantier, the book also explores the interplay of preservation and renovation and demonstrates how this exemplary contemporary redesign can be taken as a model for this sort of planning.

Williams, Maxwell Air Force Base. In their retreat from Seoul in September, 1950, the Reds left behind them the secret of their most powerful weapon: their master plan for the complete and continuing conquest of an entire population. Each individual who survived the 90 days of Red occupation bore the mark of that plan. John W. Riley, Jr. was a sociologist at Rutgers. Wilbur Schramm was a communications expert at the University of Illinois. In this work they picture the Communist scheme: the occupation of the territory by a swift sure blow of military force, the erection of an iron curtain to shut out alien influences, and the elaborate and frightening plan by which they meant to control not only the acts but the thoughts of the South Koreans. If the stark facts of the Riley-Schramm report seem inapplicable to human situation, the reader need only turn to other contemporary illustrative works. Here then, in all its aspects, the that plan that bur for the combined efforts of 52 free nations would be operating with deadly efficiency in South Korea now. Here is the plan that will be applied wherever the military powers of the Reds is sufficient to gain a foothold for the political army. A summary report of an investigation made by a team of sociologists and opinion researchers during the 90 days in which the North Koreans occupied Seoul.
